[Drbd-dev] chkconfig kill priority in init script

Hi there,
 
I've just noticed a problem with the drbd init script in git and the RPM
in the CentOS extras tree (I know this is quite old).
 
The kill priority of the chkconfig parameters (345 70 8) is not
recognised by the chkconfig that ships with RHEL 5.  This results in
drbd script being created as K00drdb in rc0.d and rc6.d, causing it to
be run before heartbeat, whose default is K05.  
 
If the chkconfig parameters are changed to "345 70 08", everything works
as expected.  I haven't checked the very latest source for chkconfig,
but I think it is very unlikely to cause a problem.
 
Thanks,
Dan.
